Sorry it's taking me so long to update but with exams and performances my life right now is really hectic not to mention that my friend recently gave birth. Which to her I congratulate on having a beautiful girl who she named 'Lantaraana (surname is Centenary) she got the name from one of Elvenprincessoflegolas's stories (My Everything)! Any way enough about that im sure you probably are skipping the author notes and going straight to the story so without further ado I give you chapter TWO! Oh and im putting this in every story but im am so mad/crazy (understatement) but I met BILLY BOYD and I have the photos to prove it! He's so great! He's really cute but although he plays a hobbit he is still taller then me! I know it's meant to be prospective stuffs but hobbits only being 3'4" makes me feel tall!

FreeFall: A Sacrifice Of Time

Chapter Two

I woke up to the feeling of someone watching me. I tried to look up to see who it was but was greeted by a hand to the shoulder pushing me back down.

'Lay still, you need to rest,' the voice was not familiar, I did not panic for I could tell that he was an elf, 'do not worry yourself you are in the house of Elrond and your needs will be taken care of.'

'Who are you? And where is my father?'

'Your father is in another room tending to his wounds.' He spoke in a gentle tone almost soothing to the mind.

'Is he hurt severely? What of Celadon? And the others?'

'My lady, do not trouble yourself further with the worries of others when it is you who should be more concerned.'

'Why? What has happened to me?'

'You do not know?'

'I only remember being shot in the side and then blacking out! And many orcs chasing us!'

'Your wound is that from an arrow piercing your side, your father merely has bruises and scratches and the others are well.'

I rested my head back down on the pillow, 'my name is Elrothiel freefall, am I in Rivendell?'

'Yes you are my lady.'

'Please call me Elrothiel.' I laughed but stopped when I felt a stabbing pain in my side.

'It would be best for you not to move or laugh, your wound needs time to heal.'

'Really? I would not have guessed that.' I replied in a joke, he laughed and then walked out the room. Immediately after he left celadon ran in.

'Elrothiel!' he ran to my side and grabbed my hand, 'I was so worried, I did not want my last words to you to be me yelling at you.'

'Do not worry celadon, it was not your fault I provoked you to.'

'Elrond states that you are doing well and will be ready to move about within seven days.'

'You make it sound so short a time when in fact it is an entire week, far too long for me to be shut up in here.' I placed my hand down in front of me and fumbled with the sheets.

'What is on your mind?' he looked sympathetically into my eyes.

'I am sorry about Nienna, but perhaps she is with the Lady Nienna now,' I sounded quite childish and did not realise until I had said it, 'Sorry Celadon, if you do need anything I am here for you.I for see that I will be shut in this room for seven days!'

We both laughed not noticing the person who stepped into the room, 'it is nice to see my daughter laughing once again,' he beamed a smile at me and I stopped laughing instead I placed a huge smile upon my face and would have leapt out of the bed but Celadon caught me in time, 'Elrothiel, as your father and on behalf of your mother.knowing that she would usually force you do stay here, well anyway, I must tell you that you are restricted to bed rest.'

'But.!' I started.

'No buts, you will remain here until Elrond gives you the all clear.'

'He was in here earlier, he was.cute.' I quickly put in.

My father raised his eyebrows almost to the top of his forehead, 'Cute?'

'Yeah, he was sweet and treated me really well.' Celadon looked at me oddly and then shook his head.

'I have heard this description to many times from your half sister, Celebrian but of someone else.' He laughed, stood up, bowed his head and exited the room still laughing.

It had been four days, agonising and slow. I closed my eyes and took in a deep breath. I was disobeying my fathers 'orders'.

I looked over the balcony, and viewed in awe the beauty of Rivendell. I smiled and leant against the railing.

'You are restricted to bed rest for another three days!' a smooth but serious tone sounded behind me, I turned in shock but wished I had not for pain shot through my side, I clenched my side and shut my eyes tighter.

I felt an arm wrap around my waist and help me walk to the bed, once I was leant against the back of the bed the pain ceased and I was able to open my eyes. I expected it to be my father as he and celadon were the only ones that had been visiting me, I had not seen any others for 2 days, and it was Elrond.

He smiled down at me and I forced a smile back, 'I.I wanted to see outside and feel air against my skin again, sorry.'

'You may do that when you are better, now I have come to check your wound.' He shifted my tunic to have a look at my side, every now and then turning to smile at me.

'Is it that bad?' I joked.

'Your are actually healing a lot faster then usual at this rate you will be able to start walking about tomorrow.' Happiness filled me, finally I would be able to get out and do things.

'Thank you!' I threw my arms around his waist and hugged him; he hesitated at first but then returned the gesture.

'You are welcome.' He smiled pulling back and walking out the room, 'also, I have discussed it with your father and the both of you are invited to my celebration, which is within TWO days.' He placed emphasis on the two, meaning that I would have to hurry up and HEAL!

I smiled at him and he exited.
